DEMOCRATIC journals, which find cause
for great hilarity in the assertions of Repub-
Icans that the recent election in New York
does not indicate defeat of their party next
year. are indulging in elaborate calculations
to show that the result in New, Jersey signi-
fes nothing, and that there is no doubt of
Democratic success in that State in SS.
Oddly enough, the journals with the keen
inconsistent position.

A MAN who has to be constantly reminded
by a servant that he should wear his hat
when on the street, and forgets the way to
his Office, is hardly the man who should be
placed on the Supreme Bench. The needs of
the country do not demand that justice of
he cannot unwind himself. Mr.. Cleveland,
however, seems to be determined to perpetrate
another blunder by appointing Mr.. Lamar.

THE official vote of Ohio, at the late cleo
tion, has been completed, and the especial
point of interest is to whether Foraker's
new civil war made him any votes. He
received total of $50, 937. In 1885 he
received $50, 281; net loss, 2. 344. The
Republican candidate for Lieutenant governor
ran far ahead of him. The new civil war
does not seem to have been a success before
the people, but it is likely to play an import
ant part in the Republican national conven-
tion.-Cincinnati Enquirer.
Why not tell all the story9 Gov. Foraker
received $780, 937 votes, and in 1885 $50, 2s1,
a net loss of g 344. In 1885 Hoadly, Demo
crat, received 81, $50. and this year Powell
received 333, 205, net loss of 8,625. In 1885
Governor Foraker's plurality was IL, 451, and
this year his plurality over Powell is %, 7S2.
a net gain of G, 331. The reason for the fall
ing off in the Republican and Democratic
vote was the large increase in the Labor vote.
In 1885 the Prohibition vote was %, 0S1, this
year &c. 700. In 1885 the Labor vote was
2,OO1, this year "a, 712, an increase of over
%, 900. The reason the Republican candidate
for Lieutenant Governor received more votes
than Governor Foraker was because of a cor
rupt trade between the Democrats and Labor
party leaders of Hamilton county, whereby
the Labor vote was to be diverted to Powell.
So far as the figures show, the ''new civil
war" as the Enquirer calls it, did very we'll,
especially in comparison with the confederate
Jeff-Davis-r ebel-fag campaign made for Gen
eral Powell. The Democrats lost g. 625 votes
over their vote two years ago, and Governor
Foraker increased his plurality 6,331. That
will do for one year, and, as the Enquirer
says, ''the Ohio idea" will play an important
part in the Republican national convention.

in the kindest feeling for American citizens of
German birth. The question is not to be
considered from class point of view. It is
question of holding our public school system
to its original idea, and of preserving not only
the usefulness of the system but the system
itself. st. Louis has set an example of reform
in this regard that should be initiated by the
people of every city in the land

The Knights of Labor in some localities
are demanding legislation in regard to the
treatment of the insane poor. No doubt
there is room for reform in that field, but the
subject does not seem to pertain exclusively
to the Knights of Labor. All classes of citi-

tendency to draw class lines and assert class
interests is one of the evils of the times
